As part of his ongoing series “united nations” monuments, site-specific installations, the artist Wenda Gu, weaves pseudo scripts comprised of human hair panels into a tower of light inhabiting the stairwell of the Brooklyn Museum’s landmark exhibition “Open House: Working in Brooklyn”.
Along with Shirin Neshat, Wenda Gu is one of today’s most important artists of the eastern diaspora, confronting issues of identity, globalization and meaning of cultural legacies, in an ever shifting topography of politics and territories. His work is utopian in nature and in its sublime lightness, offers us a contemplative solution to the world’s ills.
Works by Wenda Gu are available thru the gallery.

LINNEA GABRIELLA SPRANSY, installation view
---LAST EXHIBITION---
LINNEA SPRANSY:
“Near Recognition—Chaos & other theories”
June 4 - July 31, 2004
Cristine Wang Gallery is pleased to present the first solo exhibition in New York of recent Yale MFA graduate, Linnea Spransy.
Comprised of ink drawings on mylar and paper (in gem-like colors such as ruby, tourmaline, and acquamarine), as well as paintings (in muted color palette of deep corals, beige of sands, sea green, and azure blue of the sky), the works are characterized by a meticulous & extremely time-consuming process, resulting in intricate and fantastic visual experiences.
Her hand moves on paper, mylar or prepared painting surfaces with incredible patience, discipline, and care--following rules and parameters she imposes on herself, based upon her interest in the mystical, vertigo worlds of quantum, chaos and time theory. In these pulsations of thousands and thousands of carefully drawn lines, she defies (with an almost monastic spirituality and incredible disregard for time) the modern world of instant gratification.
In fact, her methodological process follows along Sol Lewitt in his famous “wall drawings”, in that each drawing on mylar is based upon arbitrary rules the artist sets up for herself, and in so doing, the work is an open-ended work of art, without beginning or end, without scale, an enigmatic fusion of hard science and mystical knowledge of the universe.
Highly conceptual in nature, her work simultaneously and anachronistically references the colorations and motifs of Ming and Southern Song dynasty porcelains of Chinese imperial times. The color glazes of Celadon and Longquan ceramics come to mind, as do the motifs of the dragon and wave patterns. The flowing lines and twists and turns and curling in an out, coiling bring to mind a notion of chi and the power of motion through the wind through time and space. This is especially true for her monumental painting “Plumed Stalactite”.
Linnea Spransy is a graduate of the Yale MFA program, and has already had 3 solo exhibitions, including one in Kunming, China.
